Robot-assisted process automation (RPA)
Robot-assisted process automation, also known as robotic process automation, is an approach to automating business processes through the use of software robots. RPA automates repetitive and time-consuming tasks. Automation ranges from simple rule-based tasks to more complex decision-based processes. This offers an effective way of optimizing business processes and increasing the competitiveness of companies.
By making companies more agile, cost-efficient and customer-oriented, robotic process automation creates a competitive advantage. Companies can successfully tackle the challenges of a constantly changing business world, focus on their core competencies and improve their competitiveness.
What advantages does RPA offer?
- Efficiency and adaptability: Processes can be flexibly adapted, thereby increasing efficiency and shortening processing times.
- Collaboration without friction: Seamless integration into existing IT systems enables smooth collaboration between different technologies.
- Security and regulatory compliance: Security protocols and compliance standards are followed when dealing with sensitive information and regulatory requirements.
- Data analysis and reporting: Thorough analysis and reporting leads to sound, strategic decisions.
- Extensibility and scalability: RPA solutions can be easily extended to multiple tasks and departments.
Difference to digital process automation
Robot-assisted process automation has different goals to digital process automation. RPA stands for complete automation using software robots. DPA optimizes workflows and automates processes. Human involvement in complex tasks or customer actions is retained. In a digital transformation strategy, DPA and RPA can be combined to increase efficiency and create resources for customer-oriented work.
